Pros
I joined PrizePicks three years ago and have enjoyed working here through the good and bad (nba shutdown). The company has matured rapidly since 2018 and I believe is one of the best startups currently in Atlanta. The office culture pre-pandemic is also a huge pro. It was not uncommon to have everyone agree to a cookout at 3 pm, get groceries by 4 and start grilling at 5. The free beer wasn't too bad of a perk either. Finally, the projects and data sets tackled here are extremely interesting. With the changing landscape of DFS (plus the tangentially related gaming space) and PrizePick's growth, every week bring a new and exciting challenge.
Cons
The company has grown by leaps and bounds since 2018 (when there were just 5 employees). The only downside of this is a few operational inefficiencies. I believe this can be easily fixed with a solid operations manager. I also believe that people who are more reserved will have difficulty acclimating here. As new systems and datasets come online, it is imperative to reach out to other departments with questions and feedback.
